Strong Communication Skills: The ability to effectively communicate with constituents, colleagues, and the media is essential for a successful candidate. This includes being a good listener and being able to articulate ideas and policies clearly.

Empathy and Compassion: A candidate should be able to understand and relate to the needs and concerns of their constituents, and genuinely care about improving their lives. Leadership Skills: A candidate should be able to inspire and motivate others, make tough decisions, and take responsibility for their actions. Political Acumen: A candidate should have a strong understanding of the political landscape, including the key issues, stakeholders, and processes. Commitment to Public Service: A candidate should be driven by a desire to serve the public, and to make a positive difference in their community. Dedication to the Constitution and the Rule of Law: A candidate should have a deep respect for the Constitution and the principles of democracy, and be committed to upholding the rule of law. Fiscal Responsibility: A candidate should be committed to responsible spending and fiscal management, and to ensuring that taxpayer funds are used wisely and efficiently. Inclusivity and Diversity: A candidate should be committed to promoting inclusivity and diversity, and to ensuring that all members of the community have a voice and are treated with respect and fairness.

A Strong Work Ethic: A candidate should be dedicated and hardworking, and willing to put in the time and effort necessary to be successful in their role.
Representing the interests of their constituents: A Congress member should prioritize the needs and concerns of the people they represent, and work to ensure that their voices are heard in the legislative process.

Participating in the legislative process: This includes drafting, debating, and voting on bills, as well as proposing amendments and working to build consensus among colleagues. Providing oversight of the executive branch: Congress is responsible for ensuring that the executive branch, including the President and federal agencies, is accountable to the American people and operates within the bounds of the law. Serving on committees and subcommittees: Members of Congress often serve on committees and subcommittees that focus on specific policy areas, such as agriculture, education, or national security. They are responsible for conducting hearings, gathering information, and making recommendations on legislation related to their committee's area of focus. Engaging with constituents and stakeholders: A Congress member should be accessible to their constituents and actively seek out their input on issues of importance. They should also engage with local and national stakeholders, such as community leaders, advocacy groups, and industry representatives, to better understand the impact of proposed legislation. Balancing competing interests: A Congress member must balance the needs and concerns of their constituents with the broader interests of the nation, as well as the interests of various stakeholders. This requires a nuanced understanding of policy issues and the ability to make difficult decisions in the face of competing priorities.

Upholding the Constitution and the rule of law: A Congress member takes an oath to support and defend the Constitution, and they must ensure that their actions and the actions of the government are consistent with the principles and values enshrined in this foundational document.
Term limits encourage fresh ideas and new perspectives in government, and prevent the formation of entrenched political dynasties. They also help to reduce the influence of special interests and promote a more level playing field for all citizens.
My views on financial transparency and government accountability are centered on the belief that governments have a responsibility to be open and honest with their citizens about how public funds are used. This includes providing timely, reliable, and detailed information on their financial performance and position.

Financial transparency and accountability are essential for several reasons. Firstly, they help to build trust between the government and its citizens. When people can see how their tax dollars are being spent, they are more likely to have confidence in the government's ability to manage public resources effectively.

Secondly, financial transparency and accountability are crucial for promoting good governance. By making financial information publicly available, governments can be held accountable for their actions, and citizens can participate in decision-making processes. This, in turn, can help to reduce corruption and improve the quality of public services.

Finally, financial transparency and accountability are essential for ensuring the long-term sustainability of public finances. By providing clear and comprehensive information on their financial position, governments can make informed decisions about how to allocate resources and manage debt. This can help to prevent fiscal crises and ensure that future generations are not burdened with unsustainable levels of debt

General election race ratings

See also: Race rating definitions and methods

Ballotpedia provides race ratings from four outlets: The Cook Political Report, Inside Elections, Sabato's Crystal Ball, and DDHQ/The Hill. Each race rating indicates if one party is perceived to have an advantage in the race and, if so, the degree of advantage:

  • Safe and Solid ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge and the race is not competitive.
  • Likely ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge, but an upset is possible.
  • Lean ratings indicate that one party has a small edge, but the race is competitive.[4]
  • Toss-up ratings indicate that neither party has an advantage.

Race ratings are informed by a number of factors, including polling, candidate quality, and election result history in the race's district or state.[5][6][7]

Noteworthy ballot measures

See also: Florida 2024 ballot measures

Two notable ballot measures were on the November 5, 2024, ballot in Florida. One would legalize marijuana possession under three ounces (Amendment 3), and the other would establish a constitutional right to abortion before fetal viability (Amendment 4). A 60% supermajority vote is required for the approval of both amendments.

Observers and officials commented on whether the amendments would increase turnout statewide.

  • Wendy Sartory Link, the Supervisor of Elections for Palm Beach County, said: “A presidential election gets people excited and brings people out. But you might have folks who may not have cared as much or been as motivated to get out to vote for a president or all of the other races. Now, these amendments might just drive them out.”[8]
  • Brad Coker, the CEO of the Mason-Dixon Polling & Strategy firm, said of Amendment 4: "It'll bring out younger voters of all kinds and more white, female voters, both groups which lean heavy Democratic... It’ll definitely help turn out voters in what for many was looking like a lackluster choice in the presidential race between Biden and Trump.”[9]
  • Florida House Minority Leader Fentrice Driskell (D) said: “With voters paying more attention to down-ballot races, I’m optimistic we can have a reverse coattails effect where we start to drive turnout and help improve the numbers at the presidential level.”[10]
  • Republican pollster Ryan Tyson disputed the idea that the amendments would increase turnout for Democrats, saying of Amendment 4: "Nobody is trying to say that abortion doesn’t animate their base to turn out — we’ve seen that everywhere... However, we haven’t seen them turn out voters that wouldn’t have already turned out, like in a presidential year."[11]
  • Sen. Marco Rubio (R) said of Amendment 4: “People are going to vote, they’re going to come out and vote and I don’t think [the abortion rights measure] is going to change any turnout patterns.”[12]

Amendment 3

See also: Florida Amendment 3, Marijuana Legalization Initiative (2024)

A "yes" vote supported legalizing marijuana for adults 21 years old and older and allowing individuals to possess up to three ounces of marijuana.

A "no" vote opposed legalizing marijuana for adult use in Florida.

To read more about supporters and opponents of Amendment 3, along with their arguments, click on the box below.

Amendment 4

See also: Florida Amendment 4, Right to Abortion Initiative (2024)

A "yes" vote supported adding the following language to the Florida Constitution’s Declaration of Rights: “… no law shall prohibit, penalize, delay, or restrict abortion before viability or when necessary to protect the patient’s health, as determined by the patient’s healthcare provider.” Amendment 4 maintained the existing constitutional provision that permitted a law requiring parents to be notified before a minor can receive an abortion.

A "no" vote opposed amending the Florida Constitution's Declaration of Rights to provide that the state cannot "... prohibit, penalize, delay, or restrict abortion before viability or when necessary to protect the patient’s health, as determined by the patient’s healthcare provider."

Post-filing deadline analysis

The following analysis covers all U.S. House districts up for election in Florida in 2024. Information below was calculated on May 7, 2024, and may differ from information shown in the table above due to candidate replacements and withdrawals after that time.

One hundred three candidates ran for Florida’s 28 U.S. House districts, including 42 Democrats and 61 Republicans. That’s 3.68 candidates per district, less than in the previous three election cycles. There were 5.43 candidates per district in 2022, 4.22 candidates per district in 2020, and 3.86 in 2018.

The 8th Congressional District was the only open district, meaning no incumbents filed to run. That’s the fewest open seats in Florida since 2014 when no seats were open. Incumbent Rep. Bill Posey (R-8th) did not run for re-election because he is retired from public office.
